WILLIAM WALDO,
The p. o. D. Petitioned.

During this week a petition setting
forth the einconveniencies which the citi-
zens Of Lebanon and vicinity are sub
jected to under the recent change in the
mail service, and asking that the service
be transferred back to the star route sys-
tenn. The petition has been largely
signed and the department should
grant the request, or in some way ar
range so that we can get our mail once
a day. AS it now is, we are from one
TO three days behind in everything that
is transpiring not only in remote places
but in our own immediate vicinity.
Some time ago Senator Mitchell was
'telegraphed about the matter, but as
yet nothing has been done, hence the
petition we here speak of. If it is not
heard from and the p. o. d. still seems
to slunber, probably dynamite would
wake it up in the interest of the people
of this part of the state. While we do
not wish to be understood as recon-
intending an entire annihilation Of the
p. o. ID. on account of Villas nigardly
policy, we do approve Of some method
of informing him and his subordinates
that our mail service heretofore was
good--just what we wanted-and that
they should learn to let a good thing
alone.

SATURDAY. APRIL, q, 1887.
The County Seat.

On Monday last il was the pleasure
of We editor to spend the day in Albany.
In common with those who have a
pride III home interests and in home
institutions, we only do our county sect
Justice In referring with pride toits pub
tic and private buildings. The court
house is one of the best in the state.
The public school building is also one
of the finest in the valley, while the
collegiate institute, under the manage
ment of Rev. e. J. THOMPSON. is i'm a
fiourishing condition and is fast becon-
ing one of the first institutions of learn
ing in the state. The Sisters school, or
st. Mary's Academy is also a handsome
structure, and a medium through which
many are preparing themselves for the
duties of life.
During the past year the citizens and
business men of Albany have been en-
deavoring to give their city prominence
as a railway center by braeing up the
Oregon Pacific with handsome dona-
tions in the way of money and land,
and IL was supposed that before this
time the company would have a force
at work extending their line through
the valley to the mountains, and bv
fall another railroad would have con-
nected this valley with Eastern Ore
gon and the ocean. At present, how
ever, the indications do not point this
way. While We would like 10 see the
road built we have but little faith in the
present management to do SO.
During the visit we met number of
the business and professional men all
of whom were very agreeable, and
some of them liberal in the way of pat
ronizing the so-called pestiferous news
paper man. Like our Lebanon meT-
chants and business men. those of Al
bany are liberal when ii comes to en-
couraging public enterprises, and some
of them also believe in the free use of
printers ink. Among those who desire
70 reach whole lot of good customers
in this part of the county through THE
EMPRESS are Messrs. Wallace & Thomp-
son, energetic young gentlemen who
are conducting a prosperous grocery
business and selling goods at reasonable
figures.
n. III. Allen & Co. carry large stock
of general merchandise, and are very
pleasant gentlemen TO do business with
l.. +. Blain, the popular clothier and
merchant tailor, has just received from
the east an immense stock of goods in
his line, in fact his large store is pack
ed with all the latest designs and pat
terms. He a lso handles the celebrated
Brownsville WOODEN goods.

judging from the amount of provisions,

low good to go up there and stay q

How to resi- seeds.

The Ontario Agricultural college has
issued a bulletin on this subject oi
which the following are extracts:
Place 100 seeds between sheets of
blotting paper laid on sand, and keep
the paper damp i'm n place where the
temperature is about as to S5 deg. Fab
renheit. The number of seeds germi-
mating will indicate the percentage
good.
Place the seeds ON piece of flannel
in saucer, with Sufficient water to
moisten il thoroughly. After scatter
ing the seeds (100) on the flannel. put a
piece of damp blotting paper over the
whole and keep il in warm room.
Keep it continually damp, and in u
short time the seed Will gernlinate; the
number sprouting will be the percent
age of good seed.
For examining seed as 10 purity, seat
ter them on a piece of black cardboard,
and the foreign seeds are readily OBJ
served. If a good selection of seeds
true TO their kind, is kept for compare
son, the impurities can be easily iden-
titled.
Here follow the results of several
tests i'm the germinator, but the follow
ing differences drawn from them cover
the ground, so far rs all practical pur-
poses are concerned:
l. Age has n market effect on the vi
tality of certain seeds.
.. Many seeds have lost much of their
vitality from improper curing or other
causes.
3. Frozen wheat is not reliable for
seed, for even though terminating a
fair per cent. its growth i'll the field is
of a more or less weakly nature.
!. All seeds should be tested for vi
tality and purity.
3. Seeds are more likely TO be good
agents.
g. A small percentage ofimpure seeds
means very many in "a bushel.

What Sort of Wheat Shall We CultI
yate?

Experiments have shown that the
value of wheat for seed increases with
the size of the grain: the larger kernel
yields stronger plant, and this will
bear a heavier crop; the smaller grain
contains the larger proportion of gluten
yields better flower. and brings a
higher price; but with smaller yield
per acre the profit may he less. The
volume weight Is de endent more on
the well rounded form Of the grain
than on its size; when about nike in
respect To shape, the market value of
the grain is closely prnportionats to its
weight per bushel. Grain of 4 higher
specific gravity is usually richerin glut-
en-. Richness i'm this constituent is of
the greater importance, a. affecting the
market value of the grain; it gives i,et-
ter baking qualities 90 the -four. besides
a higher nutritive value, and is accom-
panied with greater richness in phos-
phate, also au important constituent of
animal food. The proportion of gluten
i'm wheat il determined largely by the
climate and especially by the proximity
of the sea. Insular England produces.
wheat grain with high absolute
weight, but as rule with less gluten
than the wheat of Eastern Europe and
in the Western United States the pro-
portion rises to twenty per cent. and
above. Vigorous English seed wheat
sown I'm Eastern Europe yields larger
crops than the native seed, and grain
richer in gluten than the parent, though
not so rich IA wheat from native seed.

Most kinds of fruit trees thrive best
on rolling land. Hardy grapes do well
on almost any soil with a little care.
Sandy ridges are best adapted TO their
growth, but sand and leaf mold mixed
with underdrained clay will produce
large vines and fine yields of fruit.
